All of the QAPI include statements are changed to be package-aware, as
explicit relative imports.
A quirk of Python packages is that the name of the package exists only
*outside* of the package. This means that to a module inside of the qapi
folder, there is inherently no such thing as the "qapi" package. The
reason these imports work is because the "qapi" package exists in the
context of the caller -- the execution shim, where sys.path includes a
directory that has a 'qapi' folder in it.
When we write "from qapi import sibling", we are NOT referencing the folder
'qapi', but rather "any package named qapi in sys.path". If you should
so happen to have a 'qapi' package in your path, it will use *that*
package.
When we write "from .sibling import foo", we always reference explicitly
our sibling module; guaranteeing consistency in *where* we are importing
these modules from.
This can be useful when working with virtual environments and packages
in development mode. In development mode, a package is installed as a
series of symlinks that forwards to your same source files. The problem
arises because code quality checkers will follow "import qapi.x" to the
"installed" version instead of the sibling file and -- even though they
are the same file -- they have different module paths, and this causes
cyclic import problems, false positive type mismatch errors, and more.
It can also be useful when dealing with hierarchical packages, e.g. if
we allow qemu.core.qmp, qemu.qapi.parser, etc.

A precise style guide and a package-wide overhaul is forthcoming pending
further discussion and consensus. For now, merely avoid obvious errors
that cause Sphinx documentation build problems, using a style loosely
based on PEP 257 and Sphinx Autodoc. It is chosen for interoperability
with our existing Sphinx framework, and because it has loose recognition
in the Pycharm IDE.

This adds and parses the --monitor option, so that a QMP monitor can be
used in the storage daemon. The monitor offers commands defined in the
QAPI schema at storage-daemon/qapi/qapi-schema.json.
The --monitor options currently allows to create multiple monitors with
the same ID. This part of the interface is considered unstable. We will
reject such configurations as soon as we have a design for the monitor
subsystem to perform these checks. (In the system emulator, we depend on
QemuOpts rejecting duplicate IDs.)

The QAPI code generator clocks in at some 3100 SLOC in 8 source files.
Almost 60% of the code is in qapi/common.py. Split it into more
focused modules:
* Move QAPISchemaPragma and QAPISourceInfo to qapi/source.py.
* Move QAPIError and its sub-classes to qapi/error.py.
* Move QAPISchemaParser and QAPIDoc to parser.py. Use the opportunity
to put QAPISchemaParser first.
* Move check_expr() & friends to qapi/expr.py. Use the opportunity to
put the code into a more sensible order.
* Move QAPISchema & friends to qapi/schema.py
* Move QAPIGen and its sub-classes, ifcontext,
QAPISchemaModularCVisitor, and QAPISchemaModularCVisitor to qapi/gen.py
* Delete camel_case(), it's unused since commit e98859a9b9 "qapi:
Clean up after recent conversions to QAPISchemaVisitor"
A number of helper functions remain in qapi/common.py. I considered
moving the code generator helpers to qapi/gen.py, but decided not to.
Perhaps we should rewrite them as methods of QAPIGen some day.
